I used Clarity FT for my CeMAP studies, and honestly, it felt like a glorified audiobook/dictation session/script-reading service. Maria simply reads directly off the screen, offering little to no additional explanation, context, or engagement to help learners actually understand the material. The one-week remote course was particularly difficult to sit through - the delivery was painfully slow and monotonous, which made it really hard to stay focused or even stay awake. There was no attempt to break down or simplify the long-form content, and no interactive elements or clarification to support real comprehension. In the end, I found it far more helpful to just read the official LIBF material myself. It’s clearer, and at least you can go at your own pace. .
Update: The issues experienced below have now been fixed for the highlighted module. While Clarity has an open line to call during the day, this only links to their reception with promises of a call back. I had called 4 times requesting this and only recieved a call back once. On their website they advertise mock tests with 'up to 2500 questions' with random sets of questions given for each attempt. Firstly it took a week of me calling to have the option to purchase my desired module for AFA Tax (Only way to do this is through their website). Once I finally had access I was able to start doing the mock tests, another point to note is that they promise explanations for incorrect answers, this is not true as I was only given the questions that were wrong with no explanation. The testing system is very basic and doesn't allow you to go back to previous attempts to checks questions etc. However the biggest annoyance of my experience is that I could only do one full mock test before I simply got a note of 'Congratulations, you've passed all the quizzes'. Considering that the £25 I paid was for unlimited 7 day access for 2500 randomised questions, this is not the case and is false advertising. I'm not sure if this is a fault with their system and would be happy to change this review if that were the case, but the amount of issues I've had in just trying to get access to some mock test questions for a module they are advertising has been a nightmare. I have been granted a refund on the £25 paid for access to the mock test since posting this review previously so I appreciate Clarity being prompt in dealing with this, but I will leave this here until the issues with a module they are advertising, AFA Tax have been sorted completely so that others don't run into the same issues that I have.Moreexpand_more
Its been a great experience of learning and training through Clarity Financial. The tutor (Maria Hunter) made this possible for me to get the insight of the subject. You do not need to revise the videos once listened properly. Its very comprehensive and precise. I am sure it would be extremely difficult for me to Pass Level 4 Diploma for Financial Advisers without this support.
Excellent course led by Maria who is a great teacher and has amazing technical knowledge. Passed my DipFA with distinction. Thank you so much for all your support, 10/10 service and would recommend to anyone who is completing their diploma.
Lack of proper guidance on which courses to take. Took a course that employers usually pay for without being advised on that. Ask for refunds for another course I have not taken but paid for and they said no refunds. Poor service.
I did the Coursework and FactFind webinar courses for my DipFA qualification. Both courses were amazing in terms of helping me gain knowledge in all areas and how to apply the knowledge to the tests. The structure of each course was easy to follow, with each topic area covered in a way that was easy to understand. Questions were answered throughout and at the end to make sure everyone felt confident in everything. Support was available after as well, with any questions promptly answered by email. I would highly recommend these courses to anyone taking this qualification as it will provide with all the knowledge and confidence to pass. A big thank you to Maria Hunter at Clarity FT for helping me!
I did my lessons online, the courses were excellent and the suppirt was fantastic. The tutor really knows her stuff, but was also very supportive and helpful along the way. Couldn't have acheived it without them. I highly recommend Clarity. Thank you guys for all your help!
Excellent training. I did my CeMap with Maria a few years ago and passed all exams 1st time. I decided to go back and do CeRER and yet again Maria was fabulous and I passed my exam yesterday 1st time again. Highly recommended.
This course was fantastic. During the course the information provided was clear and easy to understand. Literature was provided promptly and in a format that was easy to use and revise from. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to pass their DiPFA also. Thanks Maria for being there for any of my questions and additional support when needed.
Attended two days CeRER course and passed at the first attempt. Staff was helpful and friendly. My tutor Maria was very knowledgeable and experienced, her exam techniques and tips definitely work.
I found the course for both parts of the Advanced Financial Planning section of Dip FA invaluable. They gave me the framework to formulate a submission structure. The content was comprehensive, and the deliver was excellent. I'm glad I used the service of Clarity Financial Training. It got me over the line. Vince.
I thought after more than 30 years I would be teaching CFT. But the first day I realized that my mind set must change. The course was enlightening and most helpful in preparing me for a tricky exam. Would not have passed without the course. I would strongly recommend.
Maria has been great! The whole learning experience has helped me understand the course and apply my knowledge to certain scenarios. Maria really helped me prepare for all my exams and I have now passed! Truly greatful for all her knowledge and ways of teaching. Thank you.
I contacted Clarity FT after registering for DipFA professional qualification and booked myself on the weekend course. The course was intensive but I found it a great way to cover the syllabus given my busy schedule. The way Maria covered the syllabus and taught the course made it easy for me to grasp. She is an excellent tutor and I am glad I used Clarity FT. I passed first time and will not hesitate to recommend her. Thank you Maria and thank you Clarity FT.
Having come from outside of the industry, embarking on a new career and learning so much content seemed impossible. However Maria's approach, detail and insight into breaking down the content, ways of remembering key points and revisionary guides helped me beyond my expectations. I passed all elements of the DipFA course at my first attempt and this was undoubtedly down to the additional support Maria provided. Thank you Maria and Clarity, I won't hesitate in using you again or recommending you in the future!
The FSRE course with Clarity was extremely intensive but an excellent way to get across the whole syllabus. Maria the trainer was great, and she took the time to answer questions and properly explain the material. I passed first time after the Clarity course and I am happy to recommend the programme to anyone wanting to cover the whole syllabus in a few days.
